“The start of the phase 2 portion of the dose expansion study marks an exciting milestone for this differentiated anti-TIGIT program and an important step in potentially delivering a meaningful new option for cancer patients,” said Chief Executive Officer, Garo Armen, Ph.D. “Similar to our lead program botensilimab, we engineered this bispecific TIGIT antibody with an Fc-enhanced design, which we believe to be a pivotal feature for boosting clinical activity. We look forward to the future development of this program together with our partner Bristol Myers Squibb, as we remain committed to delivering innovation in cancer research.”
